    I cannot test the connection to the database. Is this the original database or the target database. I understand is the target database.

    “Error Processing Request
    An error occurred while testing the database connection! Please Try Again…
    If the error persists contact your host for database connection requirements.
    Status details: error”

    I have read the following documentation found in the forum
    https://snapcreek.com/duplicator/docs/faqs-tech/#faq-installer-100-q
    Vapourhost says that I should be using localhost.

    Thanks for the help

    Hi,

    Sicne i had installed wordpress already (with no changes). During the deployment phase (step 1) I renamed the file wp-config.php to wp-configold.php this allowed me to continue to step 2. Can that be the issue?

    Which DB is reffering step 2 (the original or the target)?

    After deploying I get this error when accessing to the web https://businessaway.co.uk/
    “Error establishing a database connection” in the browser

    Hey @piteu125

    Thanks for the feedback! I would recommend to never use the original database name. You should create a new database and connect to that one (aka target). Step 2 should always be the new database you want to create the site with.

    Let me know if this helps~
